RE: Extreme Flight 88" Yak - Build and Fly

ORIGINAL: Josey Wales

Well at least I have a cowl and 2 wings to look at[:@][:@]

You've got the best part! The cowl on this plane is a work of art! It's an amazing beast. Put it over your head and go around making airplane noises. It will help pass the time till UPS gets the box to you. I once had my CG Pitts shipped from tower to Nashville, to Miami, back to Nashville, back to Miami, then I called them up, told them they were nuts (they agreed), called a guy at the miami terminal, found out what was going on, and then had it shipped back to the nashville terminal then on into BG, KY to my house.

Chris,
Thinking about placing an order, but I am fond of the Don's Hobby Shop coated Kevlar pull pull kits using the Rocket City swivel clevises along with the SWB adjusters. Any problem using this (I have a set here), in lieu of the supplied pull pull hardware?

You better place that order with Chris and worry about what pull pull hardware to use after it arrives, the shipment he's getting in will be sold before they arrive.

I asked Chris a legitimate question, why respond the way you did? IMHO, Your response has no merit towards the content of this thread at all. Being disabled and on a fixed income did you ever think that perhaps your financial situation is somewhat better than mine? Nuff said, I'll leave.

I recieved all 3 of my boxes today and everything looks great with no damage. There was a hole in the cowl box that I could almost put my hand into but thankfully whatever made the hole missed the cowl.

Hey Olstoney... I don't think Mokken was being facetious... I think he was saying.. if you like the plane... try and get one ordered as even the NEXT shipment (coming in about 10 days or so) already has MOST spoken for... especially if you want a certain shceme... one may go quicker than the other...

Really he was being sortof kind... sometimes a text message can be read with differing meaning than was intended...

RE: Extreme Flight 88" Yak - Build and Fly

And you were worried abotu bringing another Yak to market???? HA! It's an EF baby!

Also I wanted to concur with Chris on the regulated lipos... It wwasn;t until he mentioned it that i realized that it was the same arugument I was using over using a lion vs a 5 cell nicad/nimh.... same speed and torque from the first flight to the last...

And really we have all the power we need on them at 6 volts... especially with the 333 oz in 5955's
